I know we need defense and I I wouldn't be upset if we took the best defensive player left on the board but I see this guy as a wild card for us at 15. There has been a lot of talk about Tavon Austin but this guy is just as explosive but with the size to go with it. His only knock against him is his raw talent at WR and not precise route running. Check out his highlights and yes I know it's a highlight film. Everyone tries to depend on Brees every game and I feel that was a big down fall other than the defense last year. Getting another playmaker that can stretch the field and is a big target would help us tremendously in a division that just added the best corner in the game in Revis. Lets face it does anyone of our receivers scare anyone at this point.

One is a TE and the other is a 5'6 3rd down back. We had to constantly force graham the ball bc no one could get open and we see how that worked out and consider that graham was top in the league in dropped passes. We have colston who is a possession receiver who can not stretch the field at all and Moore who is also a possession receiver who is best at underneath routes. After that are we really going to depend on Morgan and Toon to step up? Bc I'm not sold on either one of them

1. You do realize we would still have to depends on Drew to get Patterson the ball

2. the division didn't get him Tampa bay did. last time i checked the rest of their team still sucks.

obviously Brees has to get him the ball but its a whole hell of alot easier to get someone with his size and speed rather than joe Morgan or lance Moore bc one of them will be our starter. Are you really ok with lance Moore or joe Morgan being a starting wide receiver this year? You are asking for trouble. When Brees and the team was at its best is when we had Henderson stretching the field and right now we have lance Moore starting and that's not going to cut it

What part of #2 offense without a head coach do people not understand?

Even with the "old ass" receivers the Saints have, the offense is not the problem. At #15, with not trading up or back, the Saints will be selecting defense. Of course, they could grab an OL if somehow one of the big 3 slips, but don't count on it.

I actually agree that lance Moore is not a starting wr in this league. Great slot guy in our system but I'd rather have a number 1 type wr on the outside. We definitely need to upgrade our wr, I just don't see a noticeable difference between Patterson and some later round guys. This year. There is no Julio, green, Megatron type talent.

This....We could easily get Aaron Dobson, Da'Rick Rogers if you want a big and physically gifted Wr. But if you want a speedster you could get Ryan Swope, Ace Sanders, Dennard Robinson. Also don't forget about Marquess Wilson
